Jose Mourinho dismisses Man City summer switch as ‘impossible’

Former Chelsea manager
Jose Mourinho has insisted that there is no chance of him taking over from
Roberto Mancini at Manchester City this summer.

The Real Madrid coach was asked about his future next season by Italian TV channel Sky Italia, and specifically whether he could return to English football with the Eastlands club.

Jose Mourinho says he will definitely not be joining Manchester City in the summer

‘For me to [go to] Manchester City, I say it is impossible,’ he responded. He went on to explain that he plans to have at least another year in Madrid ‘unless the press sacks me’.

Shortly after saying it was ‘impossible’ that he would go to City, Mourinho suggested that nothing can be ruled out in football when asked about the future of Cristiano Ronaldo .

Italian prime minister and AC Milan owner Silvio Berlusconi said earlier this week that he hopes to make the ‘dream’ signing of Ronaldo in the summer.

When questioned on this by the news provider, Mourinho said: ‘I’m not saying it’s impossible, because in football you never know, and Berlusconi can make a crazy offer, but it must be a crazy offer because Real don’t want to sell Cristiano Ronaldo.’

Mourinho spent just over three years with Chelsea, winning two Premier League titles, and he has repeatedly stated that he would like to return to England to work again in the future.

However, Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson suggested last week that if Mourinho is waiting for his job, he better not hold his breath, as the Scot plans to stay on at Old Trafford for as long as he can.
